lol reminds me of when I was a young idiot. I wanted to mount steelies the other way around so I could have huge lips hahaha. didn't clear my brakes thank god, or else I would have probably killed myself

WOW, are you THAT ignorant??? As you can guess flipping the lip can only be done on multi piece wheels so after you have done it you still have ALL the same pieces and structural integrity.


What you are doing is removing the face of the wheel and mounting it so it faces in, then turning the wheel around and mounting the wheel to the hub just like normal...the only difference is the part that WAS on the inside in NOW on the outside and the face of the wheel is still facing out. It DOES NOT change the structure of the wheel.


It will change the offset/backspacing of the wheels and is different on each wheel based on the disc face/mounting pad/thickness of the mounting tab/original offset/backspace etc etc.... You need to know what you are doing when it comes to the sizing of these after the lips have been flipped, but it is pretty basic to actually do on a 3 piece wheel(NO you can't do it with Rotas)...

Gorgeous Volvo!

Hehe. It's been my favorite car for years. It's what i'm building mine after, though mine is a long way from there. That's what lots of time and attention to detail gets you.
